Walking spider excavator - GIF, video, photos

Amassing agility must be a luber's nightmare to keep it all greased

It would be interesting to see the control set up. I notice about 5 independent functions for each wheel leg! In addition to all the various control options of the boom. I would sure enjoy a little seat time in that machine!
I enjoy using my bobcat 320 excavator around the home place... but that articulating excavator takes it to a whole new level!
I was surprised at the stability while at crazy angles on the slope.

I remember when the first John Deer wobble stick controlled excavator came out. It didn't take near as log to familiarize myself with it as I thought it would.
I'll bet someone who grew up with game-boys and X-boxes could master it fairly quickly.
But to do something like whats in the following video may be another story

Nice demonstration; assumedly stop motion, since the driver is absent for many of the shots.
